Definitions
- the present invention relates to polymorphic forms of Lubiprostone.
- Lubiprostone (1) is an E1 type prostaglandin derivative. It is marketed in USA as Amitiza® and is used for the treatment of idiopathic chronic constipation, irritable bowel syndrome and post operative ilues. The use of Lubiprostone softens the stool, increases motility, and promotes spontaneous bowel movements (SBM). Chemically, Lubiprostone is 7-[(2R,4aR,5R,7aR)-2-(1,1-difluoropentyl)-2-hydroxy-6-oxooctahydrocyclopenta[b]pyran-5-yl]heptanoic acid ( Drugs of the Future, 2004, 29(4); 336-341):
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,117,042 discloses a method of treatment for improving encephalic function which comprises administering to a subject in need of such treatment a 15-keto-prostaglandin compound in an amount effective for improvement of encephalic function.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,284,858 discloses 13,14-dihydro-15-keto prostaglandins E having remarkable preventive effects against ulcers. Further, according to U.S. Pat. No. 5,284,858, 13,14-dihydro-15-ketoprostaglandins E have an advantage that they have none of the side effects which prostaglandin E intrinsically has, or can remarkably reduce such effects of the prostaglandin E. According to U.S. Pat. No. 5,284,858, 13,14-dihydro-15-keto prostaglandins E are effective for animal and human use for treatment and prevention of ulcers, such as duodenal ulcer and gastric ulcer.
